The course is situated literally on the side of the Pentlands near Edinburgh and the veiws from the latter tees are superb on a bright, sunny day.
Hilly is not doing the course justice as from about 12-15, there is a pretty steep climb through some of the tough par 3s. Fairly open on the longer holes however, depending on the slope of the fairway, a what seemed perfect drive could find itself rolling down into the rough on the edge of the fairway. There is also many blind shots were a stroke saver could come in handy. The greens also ran very true and were firm and fast.
I think that some new holes have been recently opened on another section, possibly a new 12 - 18, but I would recommend contacting the club for clarification.
Generally, a great course for those who would like to test their game and fitness on many levels.

A very hilly course on the slopes of the Pentlands offering teriffic views of Edinburgh. Some really tricky long par 3's and some akward stances make this a challenge considering it is fairly short. Good greens help your putting once you make the dancefloor. New clubhouse is a great place to relax after what could be a fairly tiring round. You do need to be pretty fit to walk the course although buggies are available for the not so fit!

too many blind approach shots. if you don't know the course you won't score well. greens need a lot of work, some tee's are uneven and thats a very easy fix so not sure why it hasn't been fixed.

rather plain course as so new. Greens very sandy and bobbly but a fun place for a quick 9 holes.
